run fast
Today just flew by: on the ward by 8am to do a practice long case, spent the morning acting as intern for my registrar (our intern had the day off), went to RMO teaching on arrhythmias, ran down to ED to help my registrar admit some new patients, went to a respiratory radiology meeting, and then presented my long case to one of my supervising consultants. He gave me really helpful feedback and then asked me lots of questions which made me feel SO STUPID and in need of burying myself in textbooks.
And then the day ended on a high note when the nurse in charge of the ward, of whom I approve on principle because she has the same name as schiarire, managed to procure some plates of tiny potato cakes and quiche-things from a downstairs meeting and bring them up for everyone to share.
Tomorrow my first tutorial is at 7:30am, but at least the tutor is bringing us all coffee.
I'm still getting used to the pace of the clinical years, but I'm learning so much.
